[0011] In the method for producing a high-strength iron-based sintered alloy according to the present invention, the elemental powder of Cu powder and Ni powder has a higher C content.
The reason why it is preferable to mix the u-Ni alloy powder is that Cu
It is considered that sintering of the mixed powder obtained by blending the -Ni alloy powder is due to the following mechanism. That is, C
When the u-Ni alloy powder is blended, a large amount of Cu liquid phase is not generated at a stretch even if the temperature is raised to the solid-liquid coexistence region of the Cu-Ni alloy in the initial stage of sintering, and sintering proceeds gently, Deformation such as distortion and bending does not occur in the sintered body. In the middle stage of sintering, Ni of the Cu-Ni alloy powder is Fe
It has high affinity for and diffuses into Fe powder. When the Ni concentration in the Fe powder is increased, the solid solubility limit of Cu in Fe is increased, so that the diffusion of Cu into Fe is activated and the adhesion between Fe and Cu is improved. In the later stage of sintering, C
Since the Ni content in the u-Ni alloy phase is low, C
The melting point of the u-Ni alloy powder is lowered, a large amount of liquid phase is generated at a stretch, and dynamic liquid phase sintering proceeds. Note that even if a large amount of liquid phase is generated at a stretch in the latter stage of sintering, the sintered body is not distorted or bent since sufficient sintering has already progressed.

Next, the reason why the component composition of the high-strength iron-based sintered alloy of the present invention is limited as described above will be described. (A) Cu Cu has the effect of improving the density, strength and abrasion resistance. However, if its content is less than 15% by weight, its effect is not sufficient, while if it exceeds 40% by weight, the strength is rather reduced. Is not preferred. Therefore, C

(C) C C has the effect of reducing Fe powder and Cu—Ni alloy powder and improving strength and hardness, but if its content is less than 0.0005% by weight, the effect is not sufficient. On the other hand, if the content exceeds 0.85% by weight, the penetration of the Cu alloy liquid phase into the grain boundaries of the Fe powder is hindered, and vacancies are generated. Undesirably, so that the strength and toughness are reduced. Therefore, the content of C is 0.0005 to 0.8.
It was determined to be 5% by weight. A more preferable range of the content of C is 0.001 to 0.3% by weight, and an even more preferable range is 0.002 to 0.2% by weight.
